DaBaby’s baby mother MeMe doesn’t have sympathy for DaniLeigh

In November 2021, DaBaby and DaniLeigh were involved in an altercation at his home in Charlotte, North Carolina. The argument took place over Instagram Live and resulted in the police being called.

MeMe posted some subtle shade on her Instagram, prompting DaniLeigh to call her out. She called her a “Charlotte h**” and insisted she never stole DaBaby from her because she was never his to begin with.

MeMe responded with some tough love for the young singer. “I don’t give a f*** what y’all talking about,” she said. “I ain’t laughing at the situation, I’m laughing at you, because, baby, it ain’t fun when the rabbit got the gun. It’s crazy how the motherf***er was turned, and that’s the moral of the story. It’s backwards for you to ever have a problem with any female he’s involved with, dealing with, you don’t have that right, you get what I’m saying?”

“You knew what you was walking into when you walked into it,” she continued, adding that “spiritual warfare is real.”

“The shoe is on the other foot, and karma’s a b***.”
